It’s wicked, you think, as you read over and over again the list of facilities in the District the U.S. Postmaster General wants to close within the next six months. It’s unconscionable that entire communities could be left without any post office. You get Creole crazy, launching into a full and high decibel rant. Your neighbors could accept the closing of the Brightwood station. But postal officials also want to shutter Petworth. Seniors citizens and others can’t be expected to travel across the whole city searching for a post office. This can’t be allowed to happen.
“I will oppose any closings in the District, unless postal services are otherwise made available in local retail, federal buildings, libraries or similar facilities,” says D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton.
